Open House Welcomes Residents to Newly Renovated Municipal Office On May 20, 2025, Mayor DeViet, MP Lianne Rood, members of council, and representatives from +VG Architects architecture firm officially re-opened the Middlesex Centre municipal office and Coldstream Community Centre following extensive renovations. Over the past year and a half, Middlesex Centre expanded and modernized the municipal office, creating new spaces for the building, engineering, and planning departments, along with a larger council chamber. The renovation also incorporated a universal washroom and other accessibility enhancements. While the municipal office was closed, the municipality also refreshed the attached Coldstream Community Centre by installing new windows, upgrading washrooms, replacing flooring, and adding fresh paint. Many organizations and residents use this space for meetings, special events, fitness classes, and community celebrations.

Fill each cup of the muffin tin to about half full, and return the tin to the oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the puddings are crisp and golden brown. Serve immediately, drizzled with remaining melted butter as desired. Recipe yields 12
